// What is the Tesla Solar Roof? (src: tesla.com)
The sun provides more than enough energy in just one hour to supply our planet’s energy needs for an entire year. Your home can capture this free, abundant energy source through rooftop solar tiles, turning sunlight into electricity for immediate use or storage in a Powerwall battery.
// History of the Tesla Solar Roof (src: wikipedia)
In the August 2016 earnings call, Elon Musk preannounced that Solar City would be introducing a new product where the photovoltaic electrical energy generating devices and system would make up an entire roof surface, rather than merely be the mounting of solar panels on an existing roof, stating "It’s not a thing on a roof. It is the roof,"[53] as solar energy systems have generally been designed and installed during the early decades of terrestrial solar power.[54] Assorted styles of solar roof tiles, made of glass, were unveiled at Universal Studios' Colonial Street backlot street set in late October 2016. Also unveiled was the Tesla Powerwall 2, a home battery product designed to store surplus power, either from the tiles or from the grid.[55] Consumer Reports compared the estimated economy of solar roofs to traditional roofing.[56][57]
// What is a Tesla Powerwall? (src: wikipedia)
The Powerwall and Powerpack are rechargeable lithium-ion battery stationary energy storage products manufactured by Tesla Motors. The Powerwall is intended for home use and stores electricity for solar self-consumption, time of use load shifting, backup power, and off-the-grid use.[1] The larger Powerpack is intended for commercial or electric utility grid use and can be used for peak shaving, load shifting, backup power, demand response, microgrids, renewable power integration, frequency regulation, and voltage control.
Announced in 2015, with a pilot demonstration of 500 units built and installed during 2015, production of the product was initially at the Tesla Fremont factory before being moved to the under construction Gigafactory 1 in Nevada.[2] The second generation of both products were announced in October 2016.
// What is Tesla? (src: wikipedia)
Tesla Motors (often shortened to Tesla) is an American automaker and energy storage company co-founded by Elon Musk, Martin Eberhard, Marc Tarpenning, JB Straubel and Ian Wright, and is based in Palo Alto, California. The company specializes in electric cars and their powertrain components and also produces battery charging equipment.[7][8][9]
// How to pronounce Tesla
The word 'Tesla' actually falls outside the guidelines for |s| pronunciation in English. If the 's' follows a vowel or a voiced consonant it is generally pronounced |z|.
For example - acquisition - busy - cosy - cousin - design - desire - disease - easy - museum - music - opposite - pleasant - position - positive - presence - present - president - prison - proposal - reason - reserve - resident - resist - resolve - result - season - visit - user

A grid-tied solar electric system generates electricity for your home or business and also routes the excess power (generated during daylight hours) back into the utility grid for use after sunset or for compensation from the utility company.
An off-grid or standalone photovoltaic system is when your solar photovoltaic system is not connected to the utility grid.
There are two major categories of solar panels and several sub categories. The primary breakdown is based on how the suns energy is captured and converted.
Photovoltaic technology directly converts sunlight into electricity.
Solar thermal technology harnesses the sun’s heat energy.
There is also another, more important, way to capture and convert solar energy and our lives are dependent on it.
Photosynthesis is the system that our gardens and food forests use to convert sunlight into foods we eat.

As requested here's a breakdown of the cost in US dollars of the Enphase system with the Canadian Solar panels I installed in 2013. Keep in mind this price doesn't consider the federal or state tax incentives, which would lower it significantly. I bought the panels, racking, and inverters from Affordable Solar. The video explains what the costs where and gives a preview of other documents I created for the town in order to get permits. I also included how I calculated the size of the system needed for the house. Feel free to ask questions and if your feeling very generous you can help me spread knowledge, inspiration, compassion and adventure around the world with monetary support. You can support me monetarily on my channel page in the upper right hand corner or by clicking on one of the support JesseHoff icons in this video. Thanks.

Systems been running for a total of 40 months: the one caveat to also keep in mind is that for about half a year we've been working with only 4 panels because of an addition on the house.
So:
Update as of 9/5/16 the system has been running for
40 months total
It has produced 4.74 megawatts-hours total
1 megawatt = 1000 kw
So that equates to 4740 kwh total
4740/40 = 118.5 kwh per month
118.5/30 = 3.95
~3.95 kwh per day

Cost

In production, research, retail, and accounting, a cost is the value of money that has been used up to produce something, and hence is not available for use anymore. In business, the be one(?) of acquisition, in which case the amount of money expended to acquire it is counted as cost. In this case, money is the input that is gone in order to acquire the thing. This acquisition cost may be the sum of the cost of production as incurred by the original producer, and further costs of transaction as incurred by the acquirer over and above the price paid to the producer. Usually, the price also includes a mark-up for profit over the cost of production.

More generalized in the field of economics, cost is a metric that is totaling up as a result of a process or as a differential for the result of a decision. Hence cost is the metric used in the standard modelingparadigm applied to economic processes.

Costs (pl.) are often further described based on their timing or their applicability.

Singularity University

Singularity University is a California Benefit Corporation part university, part think-tank, part business-incubator located in Silicon Valley whose stated aim is to "educate, inspire and empower leaders to apply exponential technologies to address humanity’s grand challenges." It was founded in 2008 by Peter Diamandis and Ray Kurzweil in NASA Research Park, CA.

Singularity University began with an annual 10-week supplemental summer program and has since grown to an innovation pipeline with conference series, an array of classes, an incubation lab for startups and corporate teams, and a global alumni network.

Singularity University aims to develop a global network of innovation ecosystems alongside a coalition of entrepreneurs, business leaders, universities, government agencies and nonprofits. The institution taps into a community of scientists, thinkers, engineers, investors, business leaders, and public policy makers who explore the potential of advancing technologies to take on humanity’s challenges, such as water scarcity and energy consumption.

The International Energy Agency projected in 2014 that under its "high renewables" scenario, by 2050, solar photovoltaics and concentrated solar power would contribute about 16 and 11 percent, respectively, of the worldwide electricity consumption, and solar would be the world's largest source of electricity. Most solar installations would be in China and India.

Photovoltaics were initially solely used as a source of electricity for small and medium-sized applications, from the calculator powered by a single solar cell to remote homes powered by an off-grid rooftop PV system. As the cost of solar electricity has fallen, the number of grid-connected solar PV systems has grown into the millions and utility-scale solar power stations with hundreds of megawatts are being built. Solar PV is rapidly becoming an inexpensive, low-carbon technology to harness renewable energy from the Sun.

A grid-tied solar electric system generates electricity for your home or business and also routes the excess power (generated during daylight hours) back into the utility grid for use after sunset or for compensation from the utility company.
An off-grid or standalone photovoltaic system is when your solar photovoltaic system is not connected to the utility grid.
There are two major categories of solar panels and several sub categories. The pr...

As requested here's a breakdown of the cost in US dollars of the Enphase system with the Canadian Solar panels I installed in 2013. Keep in mind this price doesn't consider the federal or state tax incentives, which would lower it significantly. I bought the panels, racking, and inverters from Affordable Solar. The video explains what the costs where and gives a preview of other documents I created for the town in order to get permits. I also included how I calculated the size of the system needed for the house. Feel free to ask questions and if your feeling very generous you can help me spread knowledge, inspiration, compassion and adventure around the world with monetary support.

China reduces solar power costs with large-scale manufacturing

Over the past decade, China has become the world's leading manufacturer of solar energy technologies; China's solar manufacturers have helped drive down the cost of solar power around the world with their large-scale production facilities and solar panel exports. In October, ClimateWorks traveled to China to get a sense of the scale of China's solar manufacturing efforts and talk to some local experts about China's goals for dramatically scaling up its domestic deployment of solar energy technologies.

Forget the salesman or the confusing websites, this video will show you what a solar panel system REALLY costs.
From the most basic starter kit to a whole home solution, this video goes over the real world costs in 2016 for solar panel systems. This video only covers off grid systems so if you are considering a grid tied system you will need to consider other costs such as professional installation, grid tie inverter(s), and inspections/fees to your utility company.

// What is the Tesla Solar Roof? (src: tesla.com)
The sun provides more than enough energy in just one hour to supply our planet’s energy needs for an entire year. Your home can capture this free, abundant energy source through rooftop solar tiles, turning sunlight into electricity for immediate use or storage in a Powerwall battery.
// History of the Tesla Solar Roof (src: wikipedia)
In the August 2016 earnings call, Elon Musk preannounced that Solar City would be introducing a new product where the photovoltaic electrical energy generating devices and system would make up an entire roof surface, rather than merely be the mounting of solar panels on an existing roof, stating "It’s not a thing on a roof. It is the roof,"[53] as solar energy systems have generally been designed and installed during the early decades of terrestrial solar power.[54] Assorted styles of solar roof tiles, made of glass, were unveiled at Universal Studios' Colonial Street backlot street set in late October 2016. Also unveiled was the Tesla Powerwall 2, a home battery product designed to store surplus power, either from the tiles or from the grid.[55] Consumer Reports compared the estimated economy of solar roofs to traditional roofing.[56][57]
// What is a Tesla Powerwall? (src: wikipedia)
The Powerwall and Powerpack are rechargeable lithium-ion battery stationary energy storage products manufactured by Tesla Motors. The Powerwall is intended for home use and stores electricity for solar self-consumption, time of use load shifting, backup power, and off-the-grid use.[1] The larger Powerpack is intended for commercial or electric utility grid use and can be used for peak shaving, load shifting, backup power, demand response, microgrids, renewable power integration, frequency regulation, and voltage control.
Announced in 2015, with a pilot demonstration of 500 units built and installed during 2015, production of the product was initially at the Tesla Fremont factory before being moved to the under construction Gigafactory 1 in Nevada.[2] The second generation of both products were announced in October 2016.
// What is Tesla? (src: wikipedia)
Tesla Motors (often shortened to Tesla) is an American automaker and energy storage company co-founded by Elon Musk, Martin Eberhard, Marc Tarpenning, JB Straubel and Ian Wright, and is based in Palo Alto, California. The company specializes in electric cars and their powertrain components and also produces battery charging equipment.[7][8][9]
// How to pronounce Tesla
The word 'Tesla' actually falls outside the guidelines for |s| pronunciation in English. If the 's' follows a vowel or a voiced consonant it is generally pronounced |z|.
For example - acquisition - busy - cosy - cousin - design - desire - disease - easy - museum - music - opposite - pleasant - position - positive - presence - present - president - prison - proposal - reason - reserve - resident - resist - resolve - result - season - visit - user

A grid-tied solar electric system generates electricity for your home or business and also routes the excess power (generated during daylight hours) back into the utility grid for use after sunset or for compensation from the utility company.
An off-grid or standalone photovoltaic system is when your solar photovoltaic system is not connected to the utility grid.
There are two major categories of solar panels and several sub categories. The primary breakdown is based on how the suns energy is captured and converted.
Photovoltaic technology directly converts sunlight into electricity.
Solar thermal technology harnesses the sun’s heat energy.
There is also another, more important, way to capture and convert solar energy and our lives are dependent on it.
Photosynthesis is the system that our gardens and food forests use to convert sunlight into foods we eat.

As requested here's a breakdown of the cost in US dollars of the Enphase system with the Canadian Solar panels I installed in 2013. Keep in mind this price doesn't consider the federal or state tax incentives, which would lower it significantly. I bought the panels, racking, and inverters from Affordable Solar. The video explains what the costs where and gives a preview of other documents I created for the town in order to get permits. I also included how I calculated the size of the system needed for the house. Feel free to ask questions and if your feeling very generous you can help me spread knowledge, inspiration, compassion and adventure around the world with monetary support. You can support me monetarily on my channel page in the upper right hand corner or by clicking on one of the support JesseHoff icons in this video. Thanks.

Systems been running for a total of 40 months: the one caveat to also keep in mind is that for about half a year we've been working with only 4 panels because of an addition on the house.
So:
Update as of 9/5/16 the system has been running for
40 months total
It has produced 4.74 megawatts-hours total
1 megawatt = 1000 kw
So that equates to 4740 kwh total
4740/40 = 118.5 kwh per month
118.5/30 = 3.95
~3.95 kwh per day

How much does solar REALLY cost? Does it have to be expensive in the real world?

Forget the salesman or the confusing websites, this video will show you what a solar panel system REALLY costs.
From the most basic starter kit to a whole home solution, this video goes over the real world costs in 2016 for solar panel systems. This video only covers off grid systems so if you are considering a grid tied system you will need to consider other costs such as professional installation, grid tie inverter(s), and inspections/fees to your utility company.

China reduces solar power costs with large-scale manufacturing

Over the past decade, China has become the world's leading manufacturer of solar energy technologies; China's solar manufacturers have helped drive down the cost of solar power around the world with their large-scale production facilities and solar panel exports. In October, ClimateWorks traveled to China to get a sense of the scale of China's solar manufacturing efforts and talk to some local experts about China's goals for dramatically scaling up its domestic deployment of solar energy technologies.

Forget the salesman or the confusing websites, this video will show you what a solar panel system REALLY costs.
From the most basic starter kit to a whole home solution, this video goes over the real world costs in 2016 for solar panel systems. This video only covers off grid systems so if you are considering a grid tied system you will need to consider other costs such as professional installation, grid tie inverter(s), and inspections/fees to your utility company.

// What is the Tesla Solar Roof? (src: tesla.com)
The sun provides more than enough energy in just one hour to supply our planet’s energy needs for an entire year. Your home can capture this free, abundant energy source through rooftop solar tiles, turning sunlight into electricity for immediate use or storage in a Powerwall battery.
// History of the Tesla Solar Roof (src: wikipedia)
In the August 2016 earnings call, Elon Musk preannounced that Solar City would be introducing a new product where the photovoltaic electrical energy generating devices and system would make up an entire roof surface, rather than merely be the mounting of solar panels on an existing roof, stating "It’s not a thing on a roof. It is the roof,"[53] as solar energy systems have generally been designed and installed during the early decades of terrestrial solar power.[54] Assorted styles of solar roof tiles, made of glass, were unveiled at Universal Studios' Colonial Street backlot street set in late October 2016. Also unveiled was the Tesla Powerwall 2, a home battery product designed to store surplus power, either from the tiles or from the grid.[55] Consumer Reports compared the estimated economy of solar roofs to traditional roofing.[56][57]
// What is a Tesla Powerwall? (src: wikipedia)
The Powerwall and Powerpack are rechargeable lithium-ion battery stationary energy storage products manufactured by Tesla Motors. The Powerwall is intended for home use and stores electricity for solar self-consumption, time of use load shifting, backup power, and off-the-grid use.[1] The larger Powerpack is intended for commercial or electric utility grid use and can be used for peak shaving, load shifting, backup power, demand response, microgrids, renewable power integration, frequency regulation, and voltage control.
Announced in 2015, with a pilot demonstration of 500 units built and installed during 2015, production of the product was initially at the Tesla Fremont factory before being moved to the under construction Gigafactory 1 in Nevada.[2] The second generation of both products were announced in October 2016.
// What is Tesla? (src: wikipedia)
Tesla Motors (often shortened to Tesla) is an American automaker and energy storage company co-founded by Elon Musk, Martin Eberhard, Marc Tarpenning, JB Straubel and Ian Wright, and is based in Palo Alto, California. The company specializes in electric cars and their powertrain components and also produces battery charging equipment.[7][8][9]

A grid-tied solar electric system generates electricity for your home or business and also routes the excess power (generated during daylight hours) back into the utility grid for use after sunset or for compensation from the utility company.
An off-grid or standalone photovoltaic system is when your solar photovoltaic system is not connected to the utility grid.
There are two major categories of solar panels and several sub categories. The primary breakdown is based on how the suns energy is captured and converted.
Photovoltaic technology directly converts sunlight into electricity.
Solar thermal technology harnesses the sun’s heat energy.
There is also another, more important, way to capture and convert solar energy and our lives are dependent on it.
Photosynthesis is the system that our gardens and food forests use to convert sunlight into foods we eat.

As requested here's a breakdown of the cost in US dollars of the Enphase system with the Canadian Solar panels I installed in 2013. Keep in mind this price doesn't consider the federal or state tax incentives, which would lower it significantly. I bought the panels, racking, and inverters from Affordable Solar. The video explains what the costs where and gives a preview of other documents I created for the town in order to get permits. I also included how I calculated the size of the system needed for the house. Feel free to ask questions and if your feeling very generous you can help me spread knowledge, inspiration, compassion and adventure around the world with monetary support. You can support me monetarily on my channel page in the upper right hand corner or by clicking on one of the support JesseHoff icons in this video. Thanks.

Systems been running for a total of 40 months: the one caveat to also keep in mind is that for about half a year we've been working with only 4 panels because of an addition on the house.
So:
Update as of 9/5/16 the system has been running for
40 months total
It has produced 4.74 megawatts-hours total
1 megawatt = 1000 kw
So that equates to 4740 kwh total
4740/40 = 118.5 kwh per month
118.5/30 = 3.95
~3.95 kwh per day

Solar PV Installation by IKEA UK - From Start to Finish

We recently decided to do our bit to reduce our carbon footprint, but also save money. After a lot of research we decided to go with the new offering from IKEA (through Hanergy)
This video documents the process from start to finish.
The price of solar PV has come down dramatically in the last 5 years as has the need to use many of the ridiculous Rent-A-Roof schemes to fund it. It still represents a significant investment and isn't 'cheap'. Our 3.84kW installation cost just over £6k, which compares very favourably with many 'traditional' alternatives.

Solar System Return on Investment

In this video I discuss calculating a return on investment (ROI) of a solar system using tax credits and depreciation. I discuss how you can create a business, or LLC, to use depreciation benefits of a solar system.
NOTE: I try talking very slow in this video, so if I talk to slow for your liking you can use the speed option and listen to me at 1.25x speed or higher using the gear symbol at the bottom of the video player next to the "CC" button. Click on the gear button and you can adjust speed of the video.

Does Solar + Storage = Grid 2.0?

Solar is getting cheaper, and battery storage seems to be on the same rapid cost reduction curve. Solar and storage – combined with the right software and policies – will be a key part of the electric grid of the future. But there are technical and business challenges as we transition from the Grid1.0 infrastructure of power plants and power lines to a more distributed Grid 2.0.
What does Grid 2.0 look like? Who pays for it, who owns it, who controls it? As batteries get cheaper, what supporting technologies will be required? Who will provide the software to coordinate the grid with local solar/storage & customer demand? What policy changes will be needed to incentivize utilities, resource providers and customers?
Please join us for a lively panel discussion with solar, storage and util...

A grid-tied solar electric system generates electricity for your home or business and also routes the excess power (generated during daylight hours) back into the utility grid for use after sunset or for compensation from the utility company.
An off-grid or standalone photovoltaic system is when your solar photovoltaic system is not connected to the utility grid.

We recently decided to do our bit to reduce our carbon footprint, but also save money. After a lot of research we decided to go with the new offering from IKEA (through Hanergy)
This video documents the process from start to finish.
The price of solar PV has come down dramatically in the last 5 years as has the need to use many of the ridiculous Rent-A-Roof schemes to fund it. It still represents a significant investment and isn't 'cheap'. Our 3.84kW installation cost just over £6k, which compares very favourably with many 'traditional' alternatives.

Solar is getting cheaper, and battery storage seems to be on the same rapid cost reduction curve. Solar and storage – combined with the right software and policies – will be a key part of the electric grid of the future. But there are technical and business challenges as we transition from the Grid1.0 infrastructure of power plants and power lines to a more distributed Grid 2.0.
What does Grid 2.0 look like? Who pays for it, who owns it, who controls it? As batteries get cheaper, what supporting technologies will be required? Who will provide the software to coordinate the grid with local solar/storage & customer demand? What policy changes will be needed to incentivize utilities, resource providers and customers?
Please join us for a lively panel discussion with solar, storage and utility industry leaders as they describe how their products and services will help build Grid 2.0.

// What is the Tesla Solar Roof? (src: tesla.com)
The sun provides more than enough energy in just one hour to supply our planet’s energy needs for an entire year. Your home can capture this free, abundant energy source through rooftop solar tiles, turning sunlight into electricity for immediate use or storage in a Powerwall battery.
// History of the Tesla Solar Roof (src: wikipedia)
In the August 2016 earnings call, Elon Musk preannounced that Solar City would be introducing a new product where the photovoltaic electrical energy generating devices and system would make up an entire roof surface, rather than merely be the mounting of solar panels on an existing roof, stating "It’s not a thing on a roof. It is the roof,"[53] as solar energy systems have generally been designed and installed during the early decades of terrestrial solar power.[54] Assorted styles of solar roof tiles, made of glass, were unveiled at Universal Studios' Colonial Street backlot street set in late October 2016. Also unveiled was the Tesla Powerwall 2, a home battery product designed to store surplus power, either from the tiles or from the grid.[55] Consumer Reports compared the estimated economy of solar roofs to traditional roofing.[56][57]
// What is a Tesla Powerwall? (src: wikipedia)
The Powerwall and Powerpack are rechargeable lithium-ion battery stationary energy storage products manufactured by Tesla Motors. The Powerwall is intended for home use and stores electricity for solar self-consumption, time of use load shifting, backup power, and off-the-grid use.[1] The larger Powerpack is intended for commercial or electric utility grid use and can be used for peak shaving, load shifting, backup power, demand response, microgrids, renewable power integration, frequency regulation, and voltage control.
Announced in 2015, with a pilot demonstration of 500 units built and installed during 2015, production of the product was initially at the Tesla Fremont factory before being moved to the under construction Gigafactory 1 in Nevada.[2] The second generation of both products were announced in October 2016.
// What is Tesla? (src: wikipedia)
Tesla Motors (often shortened to Tesla) is an American automaker and energy storage company co-founded by Elon Musk, Martin Eberhard, Marc Tarpenning, JB Straubel and Ian Wright, and is based in Palo Alto, California. The company specializes in electric cars and their powertrain components and also produces battery charging equipment.[7][8][9]
// How to pronounce Tesla
The word 'Tesla' actually falls outside the guidelines for |s| pronunciation in English. If the 's' follows a vowel or a voiced consonant it is generally pronounced |z|.
For example - acquisition - busy - cosy - cousin - design - desire - disease - easy - museum - music - opposite - pleasant - position - positive - presence - present - president - prison - proposal - reason - reserve - resident - resist - resolve - result - season - visit - user

Cost and Solar Panel Size For Generating 1KW power for Home Use.

Solar Power system Cost per watt is Rs 85 to Rs 100 , Its a One time investment and one ...

As requested here's a breakdown of the cost in US dollars of the Enphase system with the Canadian Solar panels I installed in 2013. Keep in mind this price doesn't consider the federal or state tax incentives, which would lower it significantly. I bought the panels, racking, and inverters from Affordable Solar. The video explains what the costs where and gives a preview of other documents I created for the town in order to get permits. I also included how I calculated the size of the system needed for the house. Feel free to ask questions and if your feeling very generous you can help me spread knowledge, inspiration, compassion and adventure around the world with monetary support. You can support me monetarily on my channel page in the upper right hand corner or by clicking on one of the support JesseHoff icons in this video. Thanks.

Systems been running for a total of 40 months: the one caveat to also keep in mind is that for about half a year we've been working with only 4 panels because of an addition on the house.
So:
Update as of 9/5/16 the system has been running for
40 months total
It has produced 4.74 megawatts-hours total
1 megawatt = 1000 kw
So that equates to 4740 kwh total
4740/40 = 118.5 kwh per month
118.5/30 = 3.95
~3.95 kwh per day

China reduces solar power costs with large-scale manufacturing

Over the past decade, China has become the world's leading manufacturer of solar energy technologies; China's solar manufacturers have helped drive down the cost of solar power around the world with their large-scale production facilities and solar panel exports. In October, ClimateWorks traveled to China to get a sense of the scale of China's solar manufacturing efforts and talk to some local experts about China's goals for dramatically scaling up its domestic deployment of solar energy technologies.

This video only covers off grid systems so if you are considering a grid tied system you will need to consider other costs such as professional installation, grid tie inverter(s), and inspections/fees to your utility company.

// What is the Tesla Solar Roof? (src: tesla.com)
The sun provides more than enough energy in just one hour to supply our planet’s energy needs for an entire year. Your home can capture this free, abundant energy source through rooftop solar tiles, turning sunlight into electricity for immediate use or storage in a Powerwall battery.
// History of the Tesla Solar Roof (src: wikipedia)
In the August 2016 earnings call, Elon Musk preannounced that Solar City would be introducing a new product where the photovoltaic electrical energy generating devices and system would make up an entire roof surface, rather than merely be the mounting of solar panels on an existing roof, stating "It’s not a thing on a roof. It is the roof,"[53] as solar energy systems have generally been designed and installed during the early decades of terrestrial solar power.[54] Assorted styles of solar roof tiles, made of glass, were unveiled at Universal Studios' Colonial Street backlot street set in late October 2016. Also unveiled was the Tesla Powerwall 2, a home battery product designed to store surplus power, either from the tiles or from the grid.[55] Consumer Reports compared the estimated economy of solar roofs to traditional roofing.[56][57]
// What is a Tesla Powerwall? (src: wikipedia)
The Powerwall and Powerpack are rechargeable lithium-ion battery stationary energy storage products manufactured by Tesla Motors. The Powerwall is intended for home use and stores electricity for solar self-consumption, time of use load shifting, backup power, and off-the-grid use.[1] The larger Powerpack is intended for commercial or electric utility grid use and can be used for peak shaving, load shifting, backup power, demand response, microgrids, renewable power integration, frequency regulation, and voltage control.
Announced in 2015, with a pilot demonstration of 500 units built and installed during 2015, production of the product was initially at the Tesla Fremont factory before being moved to the under construction Gigafactory 1 in Nevada.[2] The second generation of both products were announced in October 2016.
// What is Tesla? (src: wikipedia)
Tesla Motors (often shortened to Tesla) is an American automaker and energy storage company co-founded by Elon Musk, Martin Eberhard, Marc Tarpenning, JB Straubel and Ian Wright, and is based in Palo Alto, California. The company specializes in electric cars and their powertrain components and also produces battery charging equipment.[7][8][9]
// How to pronounce Tesla
The word 'Tesla' actually falls outside the guidelines for |s| pronunciation in English. If the 's' follows a vowel or a voiced consonant it is generally pronounced |z|.
For example - acquisition - busy - cosy - cousin - design - desire - disease - easy - museum - music - opposite - pleasant - position - positive - presence - present - president - prison - proposal - reason - reserve - resident - resist - resolve - result - season - visit - user

A grid-tied solar electric system generates electricity for your home or business and also routes the excess power (generated during daylight hours) back into the utility grid for use after sunset or for compensation from the utility company.
An off-grid or standalone photovoltaic system is when your solar photovoltaic system is not connected to the utility grid.
There are two major categories of solar panels and several sub categories. The primary breakdown is based on how the suns energy is captured and converted.
Photovoltaic technology directly converts sunlight into electricity.
Solar thermal technology harnesses the sun’s heat energy.
There is also another, more important, way to capture and convert solar energy and our lives are dependent on it.
Photosynthesis is the system that our gardens and food forests use to convert sunlight into foods we eat.

Cost and Solar Panel Size For Generating 1KW power for Home Use.

Solar Power system Cost per watt is Rs 85 to Rs 100 , Its a One time investment and one ...

As requested here's a breakdown of the cost in US dollars of the Enphase system with the Canadian Solar panels I installed in 2013. Keep in mind this price doesn't consider the federal or state tax incentives, which would lower it significantly. I bought the panels, racking, and inverters from Affordable Solar. The video explains what the costs where and gives a preview of other documents I created for the town in order to get permits. I also included how I calculated the size of the system needed for the house. Feel free to ask questions and if your feeling very generous you can help me spread knowledge, inspiration, compassion and adventure around the world with monetary support. You can support me monetarily on my channel page in the upper right hand corner or by clicking on one of the support JesseHoff icons in this video. Thanks.

Systems been running for a total of 40 months: the one caveat to also keep in mind is that for about half a year we've been working with only 4 panels because of an addition on the house.
So:
Update as of 9/5/16 the system has been running for
40 months total
It has produced 4.74 megawatts-hours total
1 megawatt = 1000 kw
So that equates to 4740 kwh total
4740/40 = 118.5 kwh per month
118.5/30 = 3.95
~3.95 kwh per day

China reduces solar power costs with large-scale manufacturing

Over the past decade, China has become the world's leading manufacturer of solar energy technologies; China's solar manufacturers have helped drive down the cost of solar power around the world with their large-scale production facilities and solar panel exports. In October, ClimateWorks traveled to China to get a sense of the scale of China's solar manufacturing efforts and talk to some local experts about China's goals for dramatically scaling up its domestic deployment of solar energy technologies.

Solar PV Installation by IKEA UK - From Start to Finish

We recently decided to do our bit to reduce our carbon footprint, but also save money. After a lot of research we decided to go with the new offering from IKEA (through Hanergy)
This video documents the process from start to finish.
The price of solar PV has come down dramatically in the last 5 years as has the need to use many of the ridiculous Rent-A-Roof schemes to fund it. It still represents a significant investment and isn't 'cheap'. Our 3.84kW installation cost just over £6k, which compares very favourably with many 'traditional' alternatives.

Does Solar + Storage = Grid 2.0?

Solar is getting cheaper, and battery storage seems to be on the same rapid cost reduction curve. Solar and storage – combined with the right software and policies – will be a key part of the electric grid of the future. But there are technical and business challenges as we transition from the Grid1.0 infrastructure of power plants and power lines to a more distributed Grid 2.0.
What does Grid 2.0 look like? Who pays for it, who owns it, who controls it? As batteries get cheaper, what supporting technologies will be required? Who will provide the software to coordinate the grid with local solar/storage & customer demand? What policy changes will be needed to incentivize utilities, resource providers and customers?
Please join us for a lively panel discussion with solar, storage and utility industry leaders as they describe how their products and services will help build Grid 2.0.
